The French version of "Marriage Story" has an ingenious structure and a deeper meaning. Decades of marriage have exhausted expectations and enthusiasm, and even torture has become a decoration. Relying on paranoia to survive the dying years, marriage is nothing but a The shackles that can't be tossed, memories have become the only stimulant that can be exhilarated. The film allows the male protagonist to re-enter the memory scene twice. Facing the lover he first met in his memory, he uses multiple multiple plays to analyze and disprove the concept of love, and re-face the almost lost lover with laughter accompanied by tears, numbness. self. That emotion, that obsession. While watching, I always think of Tarkovsky's "Solaris", and the beautiful scene of memories reappears. When the design gradually wears off, I still don't want to wake up to the cowardly, the short-lived happiness that burst into tears, replaced by anyone Unable to extricate themselves. Thanks to everyone who has accompanied and left a good memory, it may be an insignificant scene, it may be a matter with no beginning and no end, and even the face that I once tried to remember every day will become more and more blurred, maybe that person , that event does not necessarily exist as a real memory, but it is a huge asset that he will show off to himself in the future. Cherish that person, if still by your side.
